Dragonflies are large flying insects that are considered beneficial. Dragonflies thrive around ponds, pools, streams, and waterfront properties. Dragonflies are not harmful to people as they don’t bite or sting. Dragonflies are actual beneficial, since the diet of immature dragonflies includes nuisance pests. They eat, mosquito larvae (immature dragonflies called naiads, live in the water), mosquitoes, ants, termites, gnats and other nightly insects. They hover over the water and are often territorial about the breeding site.
